Concubine Han? Yu Shengjun's eyes suddenly tightened, and she became a little curious about the person behind her. He took two steps forward, left the soft embrace, and then turned around.

Looking over, a mature and beautiful face immediately came into view.

Is this Concubine Han? With willow eyebrows, phoenix eyes, red lips, and a delicate nose, her facial features are perfectly grown and impeccable. Coupled with her calm and elegant aura, it seems that she is not a woman in this world.

No wonder, only such a calm and calm woman can control a bad-tempered man like Shao Qi.

The moment she saw Yu Shengjun, Han Ling was shocked. Even though she was always calm in everything she did, she couldn't help but feel incredible when she saw such a handsome man.

But at this moment, her face was not very good, a little pale, and she was also coughing.

"Cough," Han Lingying looked away from Yu Shengjun and gently covered his mouth with the hand holding the handkerchief to prevent himself from coughing too loudly.

The maid next to her came over to support her, "Madam, your cold has not subsided yet. Stop blowing outside. Let's go back to the palace."

After Han Lingying passed by, Yu Shengjun also moved forward.

Finally, Han Lingying stopped and looked behind her, only to see Yu Shengjun's retreating back. She coughed and asked the maid weakly, "Lingqiao, have you seen that man before?"

Lingqiao said: "Your Majesty, I couldn't see it just now, but now I can see it. It's a guard."

Han Lingying was surprised, "Hasn't there never been a guard in this harem before?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know something," Lingqiao helped Han Lingying and said as he walked. "That day when Concubine Tang entered the harem, my servants also went to see her. The dress of the Ouchi guards was the same as that person just now."

Han Lingying nodded, "Well, he should be the personal bodyguard sent by the emperor to Concubine Tang."

Lingqiao wondered: "But Ruining Palace is far away from our Fengyang Palace. How come Concubine Tang's guards came here?"

Han Lingying said: "This is a matter for other palaces. We should not interfere, let alone inquire, lest we get into trouble."

"Yes, I will keep this in mind." After saying that, she deftly helped Han Ling back to the palace, but there were some things that she couldn't help but complain about, "Your Majesty, I don't understand. Now we, Yu Xin, have unified the Central Plains.

But why hasn’t the emperor come to the harem to favor the empresses? I really don’t understand. Since ancient times, there has been no emperor who has not..."

"Shut up!" Han Lingying stopped the maid in displeasure. She looked around and made sure no one was around before she breathed a sigh of relief. "If others hear what you said, will you still survive until tomorrow?"

Lingqiao lowered his head and admitted his mistake, "I don't dare to do it anymore. Don't be angry, my lady."

Han Lingying said nothing more, "Go back to the palace."

After walking for a while, his clever nature reappeared, and he spoke "rudely" again, "Your Majesty, I feel that no one in this harem is more loved by the Empress Dowager than you. I guess that once the emperor comes to the harem, he will be the first to be blessed.

My concubine is you, my empress."

"No!" Han Lingying said suddenly.

Lingqiao was frightened by her stiff expression. His face was already pale enough, but with the stiff expression, it was even more frightening. "Mother, what's wrong with you? Did I say the wrong thing?"

Han Lingying realized that she had spoken too harshly and immediately stopped her sharp words, "It's okay."

——

Shortly after noon, most of the people in Xiangning Palace left.

The imperial concubine was the last to leave.

After watching the empress dowager and the eunuchs and maids in her palace go away, Tang Lin ran back to the main hall from the gate in a flash. In front of the empress dowager, she did not retain any of her fiery personality and said, "Let's go, let's all go."

Got it!"

The Queen Mother gently put down the teacup in her hand, smiled helplessly at Tang Lin, and shook her head, "You, the Ai family really can't do anything to you, they can do anything."

Tang Lin smiled and said, "What your son has done is much more amazing than what I have done."

The Empress Dowager waved to the eunuchs and maids beside her, and those people understood and retreated one after another.

After the two of them were left, the Empress Dowager's expression became much more serious and she said straight to the point: "Xiao Tang, tell the Ai family honestly, Concubine De is really...pregnant?"

Tang Lin said: "Based on her behavior, well, there are signs of pregnancy."

"How is this possible?" The Empress Dowager thought it was too ridiculous. "There is not a single man in this harem. All the eunuchs were put into the harem after repeated inspections. How did Concubine De get the chance?"

Tang Lin said: "Queen Mother, please don't be angry, let alone impulsively punish Concubine De. Once you alert the snake, nothing will be found out. As for Concubine De's pregnancy, please leave it to Xiao Tang. I listen.

Concubine De said that not long ago, a palace maid was seriously ill and Concubine De was sent out of the palace. I want to check whether it is related to the death of the two concubines."

The Empress Dowager warned: "Then be careful. If you need help, come directly to the Ai family. The Ai family will definitely help you. The premise is that you have to take care of yourself. If you make any mistake, the Ai family will

There is no way to explain to the emperor."

Tang Lin was deeply gratified to receive such concern from the Empress Dowager, "Empress Dowager, don't worry, I will be fine, I promise."

——

Tang Lin returned to Ruining Palace and walked through the gate grandly.

When the eunuchs guarding the door saw Tang Lin, they all touched the back of their heads. Hey, hadn't their Concubine Tang already gone in? When had she gone out? 13acv.

A eunuch stopped Tang Lin and said, "You..."

Tang Lin threw a few words angrily, "What are you looking at? You can't recognize me when I'm dressed like this? Keep an eye on me at the door. If anything happens, I'll kill you!"

Isn't their empress very weak? Why is she so irritable?

"Get out!" Tang Lin glared at the eunuchs with a bad expression. Of course, she couldn't underestimate these eunuchs. They were all very skilled. Otherwise, how could they protect the gate of Ruining Palace?

After throwing the word "get out", Tang Lin turned around and entered the palace angrily.

Those eunuchs were still standing at the door, bewildered.

It just so happened that all the guards were eating in the backyard at this moment. The concubine and the saint got together.

Tang Lin angrily pushed open the door of the palace and walked in, not forgetting to yell: "You've gone too far, you've gone too far. Even the real Concubine Tang dared to stop me. I have to find a way to deal with it."

Walking into the inner room, Tang Lin took off her clothes and glanced towards the bed. This Shihe really knows how to enjoy herself. She was half lying on the bed reading a book. "Hey, you went out crying today, are you okay?"

Shihe said: "I'm much better now. Tang Lin, I almost messed up your matter. I'm sorry."

"It doesn't matter, you need to grow up and mature anyway, just think of it as an experience." After taking off his clothes, he walked towards the screen, not forgetting to say along the way: "Oh, by the way, you will stay in Ruining Palace from now on.

Don't run around."

"What about you?" Shihe heard something else in Tang Lin's words, "Are you going out?"

A voice came from the other side of the screen, "I have to go to Concubine De to do some errands. I don't think I'll be back in a while. You stay here well. If you have a stomachache, go to Dr. Wu. If any concubine comes to provoke you, go to Dr. Wu."

Guard."

After Tang Lin came out, Shihe said worriedly: "I'm worried about you."

Tang Lin climbed onto the bed and leaned against the wall like Shihe. She smiled and said, "Don't worry about me until you can beat me one day. Your worries now are unnecessary. Of course, if you really don't want to

You can confess to Fu Yushu without telling him. In this way, I can come back openly every day without worrying about whether they will see me."

When he mentioned Fu Yushu, Shihe's face darkened, "I... don't want to face him yet."

"It's up to you. I'll go to sleep first. Wake me up before nightfall." After saying that, Tang Lin lay down and went to sleep.

"Did you really sleep?" Shihe also wanted to talk about what she discovered today.

Tang Lin closed her eyes and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."

Shihe told what she discovered today, "Today, when we were near the entrance of Xiangning Palace, a concubine was sitting in a sedan and passed by us. The concubine threw a few sour plums out of the sedan. You

Tell me, does she like to eat sour plums, or..."

Suddenly, Tang Lin's eyes opened and she immediately sat up, "Really? Do you know which concubine she is?"

Shihe shook his head, "I don't know."

Tang Lin held her chin and thought for a moment. It should be Concubine De. When she poured wine for Concubine De, she could clearly smell the smell of sour plums from Concubine De. Don't pregnant women like to eat sour foods?

If Concubine De is really pregnant, then... who is the father of the child?

The imperial city is guarded by imperial guards and Ouchi guards, and all palace gates are even more tightly guarded. No one can enter the harem without orders. So, who is the man who has the opportunity to enter the harem?

It couldn't be the Royal Guards and Ouchi guards. They were guarding outside the harem and would not go in at all. Moreover, the security of the harem was left to those eunuchs who knew martial arts, so there was no need for the Royal Guards to come in.

"Forget it, I'll analyze these things after I wake up." After saying that, Tang Lin lay down again.

——

He looked up at the sky and saw that it was already afternoon. Yu Shengjun looked at the surrounding roads and then looked at the map. If he saw it correctly, there was a corner of the Royal Garden ahead.

He walked outside a palace without looking at the plaque on the palace, and then went into the Imperial Garden.

After walking around a lotus pond, there was a pavilion in front of him, and he wanted to take a look there.

"Ugh—" a sound of vomiting came from the room.

At this moment, Yu Shengjun was standing on the path beside the lotus pond. He looked around and finally locked onto a figure from behind.

After spitting out some sour water, Concubine De, who was squatting by the lotus pond, waved her hand behind her and said feebly: "Hanyu, help me up."

Yu Shengjun frowned, "My lord? Is that person his concubine?"

He reached out and grabbed Concubine De's hand.
